Kiwi Berries

1/2 dry pint

Kiwi berries are a nutritional powerhouse. They are the most nutrient dense of all the major fruits, and are an extremely healthy food source. Containing almost 20 vital nutrients, kiwi berries are considered a super fruit! They're not just delicious...they're good for you. They taste like a mix of super sweet kiwi mixed with tropical melon.

For best storage life refrigerate the kiwi berries in the coldest part of your refrigerator (usually the shelf on top of the produce drawers). The fruit will hold for up to a period of two weeks or longer.

How do I know when the kiwi berries are ripe?
Kiwi berries should be allowed to ripen at room temperature. Their skin will turn darker green, become slightly wrinkled, and they will yield to gentle pressure when ready to eat.

How can I ripen the kiwi berries?
You can hasten the ripening process by placing the berries in a paper bag at room temperature. Don't try this process with conventionally grown kiwi berries...most fruit is picked too early, ripened with ethylene, and will only store for a short period of time before it becomes watery.

What are the health benefits of eating kiwi berries?
They're high in:
Vitamins: 5x the Vitamin C of an orange, double the Vitamin E of an avocado, plus A, B2, B6, and folate for energy, immunity, and healthy skin.
Fiber: 4g per serving, great for digestion, heart health, and detox.
Minerals: More potassium than bananas, plus magnesium, calcium, iron, zinc, copper, and more—for strong bones, steady energy, and immunity.
Phytonutrients: Carotenoids + flavonoids for eye, heart, and cancer protection.
